too soon, this will happen eventually no doubt
$5 Chinese SBC sold on Ebay for $200
cheap chinese SOCs aren't good enough to run N64 yet
sega should have done a master system mini though
>that anachronistic, shitty-looking second-gen NES red bar at the top
What homosexual designed this? It's like he never saw an N64 game or box in his life.
Considering Nintendo has already set up shop to manufacture new OEM N64 controllers, I'd say chances are high this will come out a year before the "Switch 2".
Raspberry pi works better
Only mini versions of iconic consoles will sell.
The ps1 minis initial lackluster sales made them worry.
Does Nintendo think that the N64 was iconic enough to grab the nostalgia market?
Personally I don't know many who had one when they were out.
It seems that the next logical step in mini consoles would be either a PS2 or xbox.
I don't see that happening just yet

Where did you live? Also, I'd take that Xbox mini you posted.
>Where did you live?
Europe.
I did a little research.
PS1 was released in Europe in September 1995 in time for the Christmas market. N64 wasn't released until March 1997, Nintendo held off the release in Europe so they could redirect production capacity to the supplying the US market for Christmas 96. By the time it was released in Europe playstation had 2 Christmases to take a big market lead.
So I guess it's popularity depends on territory.
It just wasn't that popular here. Playstation was the console all your friends had.
there are a frickton of millennials that remember the multiplayer fun of Mario Kart. Not to mention Mario 64, both 64 Zeldas, banjo kazooie the Mario party, golf and tennis games, star fox, f zero etc
The Xbox isn't iconic at all, not that I don't think it should be. The Xbox brand just seems to have very little "retro cred" like Xbox, Nintendo, and Sega do, despite the fact that it's pretty damn old now. Hence why original Xbox games are still cheap as dirt while other console prices skyrocket.
Of course I meant like PlayStation, Nintendo, and Sega do*
most xbox players became slightly more logical and rational pc players willing to compromise, also the xbox has been modded forever and is basically mandatory with how bad the drives are.
Therefore physical xbox games hold nearly no value
I have bigger nostalgia for my modded Xbox UI then the original one. I have nearly no memories of using xbox discs at all
know a person with a big physical N64 game collection + unique system that says they'd sell it all if a n64 mini came out
Yes, they are moronic and refuse to emulate and think minis and re-releases are not emulation.
most of the consoles you can cheaply emulate on a piece of shit ARM single board computer and cheaply license games for have had mini consoles by now.
N64, saturn, dreamcast etc. are too demanding to emulate to work with the established model of shitting out these things.
no one can properly emulate n64, not even nintendo
